Schofield Watch Company wanted to make a linen lanyard for the famous ACME brass ‘Titanic’ whistle, as an accessory to accompany the Schofield Signalman wrist watch. The lanyard uses a laser engraved horn toggle made by Grove and Son’s, the last remaining English horn button manufacturer. Linen rope is used for hanging weights in antique clocks. There is a custom designed brass toggle and leather cord attaching the lanyard to the whistle. It comes packaged in a card box labelled with a portrait of Commander Lightoller who was an incredible and inspiring man… worth Googling
Schofield Owner Giles Ellis demonstrates how it could be worn.
The whistle and lanyard are available IN LIMITED NUMBERS at the Schofield online shop http://schofieldwatchcompany.com
